Students 2.0 “Students 2.0 is about quality over quantity – one or two posts will be published every day. Every author will write a post approximately two times a month. Every post is reviewed for quality and grammar by a student editor. In addition, guest posters will occasionally invited to contribute. No matter what, all posts will relate directly to one or more of our topics: leading, learning, and teaching. All authors and editors are students.Authors will also have the option of writing asides: small posts with links to elsewhere in the edublogosphere. These will serve as a method for sharing breaking news while still maintaining a high quality standard.RSS feeds will be offered for a variety of uses. There will be feeds available for posts & asides, as well as both together. We will also have a comments feed available if a lively discussion suits your taste. A conglamerate feed, containing the posts from all of our individual blogs, will also be published, for the truly insane. Of course, there will also be a master feed containg all of our fine feeds rolled into one. Eat up!” Do I need to say any more other than WOW! and big kudos to Clay Burell (the godfather) for connecting with these students and getting this project off the ground. You only need to spend a weekend with Clay to be inspired by what passion, initiative and talent can enable. Can’t wait to watch the words fly!Click here to visit the site.
